Kathy Newberry runs in the 5,000 final.	Sarah Hann finished 14th in 16:27.73.	Shalane Flanagan continues to push the pace up front.	R-L: Carrie Tollefson, Marla Runyan, and Shayne Culpepper work hard to match Flanagan's pace.	Jen Rhines hung with the leaders for much of the race, but began to drop back slightly in the final laps.
Molly Huddle would finish seventh in 15:37.92 in her first Olympic Trials.	Yoder Begley was an NCAA champion while at the University of...	...Arkansas. She struggled with injuries for a couple of years but was making a comeback here.	Texas A&M's Melissa Gulli leads Stanford's Sara Bei.	Gulli, Bei, and Kristen Nicolini continue to run together.
Katherine Newberry drops back slightly.	Flanagan was not known for her kick, but if anyone was going to beat her here, she was...	...at least going to make them hurt first. She gradually upped the pace over the final laps...	...and with two laps to go, Carrie Tollefson and Jen Rhines had dropped back slightly.	Missy Buttry and Molly Huddle vie for top collegian honors.
Amy Yoder Begley finished ninth in 15:52.12.	Sara Bei with two laps to go.	Team USA Minnesota's Kristen Nicolini with two laps to go.	With one lap to go, Flanagan still held her lead, but Amy Rudolph, Marla...	...Runyan and Shayne Culpepper were all right behind her, poised to kick.
